Give me Newsiee Theatre-AU
Give me Stressed-Out Stage Manager Albert and Best Friend-Character Racetrack, who won't stop talking backstage and driving Albert mad.
Give me Set Designer Jack and Love Interest David, who always practices his ballad in the theatre while Jack works on a background, though Jack's really only focusing on him.
Give me Costume Designer Buttons and Chorus Member Elmer, who's constantly accidentally tearing his costume while doing tricks and having to go into Buttons to get it fixed.
Give me Techie Specs and Crutchie, who only signed up to watch their friends perform every night for free, but end up actually enjoying each other's company each show.
Give me Bully Character Spot, who has to slap the lead, Katherine, but has started to apologise afterwards every time they do the scene because they feel bad afterwards.

Uksies!Buttons: Tadhg McCarthy. Got his nickname from the phrase “has his buttons in order,” meaning he’s hella smart. a protector. likes to steal things. enjoys lounging on the floor. will literally just appear (sometimes under another name).
OBC/Livesies!Buttons: Benjamin fucking Davenport. Managed to lose every damn button on his vest in one day. literally how do you manage that. has fleas. wet rat (affectionate). likes playing with spoons. someone save him.

There's a lot of debate amongst newsies fans (javid vs jatherine, gay davey vs bi davey, redemption arc delanceys vs villain delanceys...) but I'm pretty sure the one thing everyone agrees on is that Buttons isn't cis and tbh we're so right for that

now and forever thinking about uksies Buttons who is a complete menace that spends his time stealing and generally causing chaos. but who also cares so much about the other newsies and will always make sure the younger newsies eat, even if it means he forfeits what he’s stolen or his own food.

Buttons went through the effort of embroidering every newsies name into their hats because Race and Albert swapped hats one day then Finch took Albert's hat only for it to be taken by Buttons who lent the hat to Romeo who lost it to Specs in a bet then getting stolen by Finch and further down the line till someone realized Race had lice
To prevent this every newsie who lasts more than a week or so surrenders their hat to Buttons for a day so he can get their name stitched in hopefully preventing that from happening again

emme’s obscure newsies headcanons
hi! so, @sparkedblaze (because they definitely did a lot with this project) and I spent some time making headcanon and historical information posts about some of the lesser known newsies who don’t always get a lot of love, inspired by this post by @roideny (who, by the way, has also made another lovely masterlist of historical analysis that you should check out here). feel free to pick and choose what you want to use for your own headcanons, fics, fanart, etc. thanks!
also, if you don’t see enough about the character you’re interested in, yell at me, @ me, hit up my asks. I will gladly give you more.

for stuff I didn’t cover, I would check these other resources:
@newsiepedia and their character info sheets (although they mainly do more well-known characters)
@newsie-collective and their heacanon posts
@crystallizedtwilight‘s comics are essentially canon
@noxexistant‘s everything
@athousandboxjumps has AMAZING headcanons
@stocksonromance also has beautiful headcanons to share
@musicalcuriosity hasn’t posted in a while, but their historical stuff makes me weep with sheer joy
@loving-jack-kelly has posted some jack content that has literally made me squeal 
@thefactsofthematter post fanfic works that SHOULD be canon
@idontknowwhatimdoing668’s incorrect quotes are accurate 
AND SO MANY OTHERS THAT I DIDN’T SAY BY NAME OKAY THANKS BYE

So many mistakes are made repeatedly in the Lodge House that when Crutchie comes in and says, "It Happened Again." They have a little guessing game on what happened.
Crutchie: They did it again.
David: Elmer was told he was too small for the top bunk but slept up there anyways and fell off?
Finch: Nah, he would've come running crying to me. I'd say Race and Albert got chased down the streets by the bulls again for robbery and Kloppmans pissed at 'em.
JoJo: Not a chance, I would've been told immediately. I'm gonna say that Mush don't have the money for a bunk tonight, and we all need to fish in and help?
Crutchie: Suprisingly, all wrong. Buttons, last guess, what do ya think?
Buttons: ...Splasher fell in the pond again?
Crutchie: Nope, Specs and Ritz were goofing around at Medda's and fell into the orchestra pit.
Romeo: Jesus fucking Christ, that's the third time this month.
